For the animal/owl lover in your house, get this book. Not only will you get detailed information about the lifestyle and habitat of owls, but you'll also get awesome photographs of different breeds of owls doing different things. There's up close shots of their big eyes, action shots of "the hunt," cute ones of owlets, even a semi-gross one of an owl pellet. There's even a glossary, bibliography for further reading and an index. A great book for kids and adults alike!

Very nice book, pictures and text are informative for all ages, will help with school prodjects. It did come with creases in lower portion of "paper back" book, U.S.P.S. did roll it in the mail box, try to order with other products so it is shipped in a box. First time having any problem with shipping from amazon, most likely U.S.P.S. issue.
